Dear users, dear authors,
Santa Claus has a lot to do and therefore needs competent support, which he naturally gets from the elves, the gnomes, and even the reindeer. You can make them right away and support Santa Claus too, so that at Christmas he can give plenty of gifts to every child.
Get started.

@Authors,
2-3 patterns per author are enough. Don't forget the link and image, as well as the usual information.

So that Santa can make good progress in his sleigh, he needs lots and lots of snow. Good thing the little snowflakes are already ready, so the earth can soon be covered with a thick, soft blanket of snow.

Crochet these cute winter children for yourself! They make a wonderful decoration for the cold season, but also look very pretty as gift tags. They will be about 12 cm tall. With the pattern you can crochet three different snowflake children.
A few white, silver, and skin-colored leftover yarns are enough for this. The little snowflakes turn out especially pretty if you use a bit of thin fluffy yarn along with the silver yarn as a carry-along yarn.

Who doesn't know him, Rudolph with the red nose? You can crochet this Rudolph in no time. And then he can become a gift tag, Christmas tree ornament, bag charm, or keychain. It's best to make several of them right away, because you'll see, he's very popular! Here’s the pattern!

This reindeer isn’t much help with making gifts, but he’s highly recommended as their guardian! On this gift bag, he faithfully and tirelessly watches over its contents—until the gift-giving.


 
This gift bag is made from photo cardstock and measures approx. 22 x 27 x 13.5 cm. It’s easy to make and also well suited for crafting beginners.

Marvin the moose is also very happy to help Santa!


Even though he is only 19 cm tall (up to the tip of his antlers) and 16 cm long, he can still make a big difference.






You can find notes on the required materials in the item description.

Here you’ll get a very special Christmas elf: Manni the Polar Bear!
Of course, the pattern also includes the sack where you can store small gifts for your loved ones.
So Manni serves not only as decoration for the Christmas season, but also as a gift! 

You’ll receive a very detailed step-by-step pattern with lots of pictures. So the pattern is definitely suitable for ambitious beginners.



You don’t need much at all for the bears:
- crochet yarn in your desired colors
-a matching crochet hook
-stuffing
-safety eyes
-A little bell (if desired)

every enthusiastic crafter is sure to have a sewing needle and a pair of scissors at home anyway! :-)

You should know the following: 
chain stitches, slip stitches, single crochet, half double crochet, double crochet, treble crochet, decreases and increases, color changes


So, get the pattern here and start right away! 

I hope you have lots of fun. :-)

From out in the woods I come.....
What might he have in his sack? To make this pattern, you need a size 2.5 crochet hook, cotton yarn (e.g. Catania) in red, white, brown, and yellow, a darning needle, stuffing, 5 mm glue-on eyes. With the specified yarn, Santa will be approx. 20 cm tall. You can vary the size with the yarn weight; with thicker yarn he will be
larger.

These cute helpers come as a whole family. They look after children’s or crafters’ treasures and also make a great Advent calendar. Children get very creative playing with them.



The gnomes are completely 
The gnomes are crocheted in no time and are also perfect for beginners. The colors can be freely chosen, as can the faces.

There is also a house for the gnomes that can be used in many ways. In my shop there is an individual pattern for the gnomes as well as for the house. In addition, there is a complete value set.

Click here for the crochet pattern for the gnome family.

Did you know that it’s not just us humans who receive gifts at Christmas? The animals in the forest also get little treats on Christmas Eve!
Because this cute Christmas owl, “Emerson,” personally takes care of all the forest dwellers - whether big, small, or furry!



In the pattern, you’ll find a detailed step-by-step description with numerous helpful illustrations as well as a techniques section that thoroughly explains the crab stitches and relief stitches used.

To make this, you’ll need:
  • any yarn in the colors ice blue, wine red, dark brown, and light brown
  • a small amount of fluffy white yarn for the scarf and hat
  • a crochet hook in the appropriate size
  • 1 pair of safety eyes or 2 black beads
  • as well as stuffing

Why not crochet this cute little Christmas helper with his big gift sack yourself? You can find the pattern and more info here >>>
